Mill Roll Bearing

A mill roll bearing has several important components. These parts include the sleeve retainer, the bearing sleeve, and the bearing chock. These components are used to rotate the mill roll. When the bearing sleeve is rotating, a feeler gauge is inserted through the inspection passages in the bearing sleeve retainer. The feeler gauge is used to test whether the roll neck fits properly into the bearing sleeve.

Oil film bearing

A Mill roll bearing oil film bearing is a type of hydrodynamic bearing that operates on an oil film. This unique hydrodynamic design is characterized by a high load carrying capacity and minimal metal-to-metal contact. A hydrodynamic film of oil is continuously maintained in an oil film bearing by the hydrodynamic action of a rotating sleeve. The oil film bearing is able to maintain its performance at high speeds, while being extremely low in space requirements.
